geo374 0 Posted February 7, 2007 The Aberdeen Evening Express has a small article today stating that former Dundee manager Jim Duffy has been appointed coaching chief at Norwich City. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
In the blood 0 Posted February 7, 2007 I Have seen the same story mentioned elsewhere. I think it would be a positive appointment but I wonder who Duffy will replace? IMO, I think it would build even more confidence in PG if he were to replace one of the previous era appointees. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alex_ncfc 667 Posted February 8, 2007 This is fantastic news, someone with a bit of experience joining the set up. He will no doubt replace Dougie as PG''s assistant, who I have heard is retiring at the end of this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder if Duffy''s role will be shrouded in similar mistery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With Webb going an opportunity has arrisen for PG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

percyvarco 0 Posted February 9, 2007 And Gunny on the coaching staff ish as well. We are Scotland in disguise. Does leave Hunter as the only non Haggis lover out of the 4? Lets hope that they can install fresh thinking and a little less theory and a bit more bite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
